This Ain't No Disco...

It' ain't no country club either; this is LA.

I've officially been on the west coast now for 2 days! In case anyone wondered, Amber and I made it in PPM (Purple Pimp Mobile--the Volvo) made it here safely after 3 days of driving cross country. We left Saturday morning a little before 7 and stayed the night in Little Rock, AR with one of Amber's friends. We drove all the next day and stayed in Albuquerque, NM before finally making it all the way to LA.

So, I've never really traveled around the U.S. and was so excited to drive around the country because of all the cool and interesting things I'd see driving down I-40. I was wrong. There are a lot of trees. And then there's a lot more trees. And then once you get out of AK, there's a lot of dirt. I have to admit, I definitely think the east coast is the prettiest part of the country but there are some great sunsets out west.

I move into my apartment tomorrow and I can't wait! It's really close to Hollywood Blvd. and where I work which is down Sunset. Amber and I drove around town yesterday so I could learn my way around, which if you know me, is quite difficult because I'm not great with directions. Luckily, I have a cute little GPS I have named Carminita. Why Carminita? Well, on our long journey of being in the car for 12 hour periods, Amber and I were delirious and named her friend's GPS Carmin the Garmin. Cute, right? haha. After we got here, it was obvious that with my lack of direction and inability to talk on the phone whilst driving (Cali law), I was in trouble so we bought my very own little Carmin aka Carminita.

Okay, this post is long and not very entertaining, my b. Hopefully the next ones will be filled with stories of me meeting Zaquisha and R Patz as well as Miley Cyrus and other Disney peeps. In the mean time, drink a lot of sweet tea for me (there is none here, I'm already going through withdrawals.)

  1. Look at you big girl! I'm so glad you made it there in one piece and have started settling in. I became a follower so hopefully I can stalk you more efficiently that way. Yay for you, and have a wonderful time! And as always, if you see Zaqueisha, let him know I miss him and try to get a kiss if the bodyguards look away for a second. LOVE YOU!

  4. I love this. Thank you for doing this. PLZZZZ keep me updated on the celeb sightings!!#@#$!#$!$ I'm most jeal of those.
    Also, I can't believe you're there. Holy shiz, please don't go all West Coast > East Coast, and PLEASE tell Carminita to steer clear of Gang Areas. Ugh.

    PS- your digs on HOLLYwood Blvd. I think it's a sign. I want to come visit ASAP. Not joking. I miss you already and I'm drinking sweet tea right now. Sigh.
